Y'all need to pull up to our third annual gala!
Come support the local arts, and have a few drinks while dressed up like you're going to a 1920s fancy party (or whatever bohemian means to you)!
If you can't make it, you can always just leave us a donation :)
Thanks!

So we do timed writing sprints, where we ask that the attendees try to write without stopping in order to help turn off their internal editor.
We typically do writing sprints in segments of 15 minutes to warm up, then about 45 minutes.
